Antifungal Peptides from a Strain Suppress Basal Stem Rot Disease of Oil Palm.

Basal stem rot (BSR) is the most common disease of oil palm () in Southeast Asia. BSR is caused by a white-rot fungus . The disease is difficult to manage.

Comparative Reaction of to and .

and are two of the most important pathogens of many cruciferous crops. The reaction of 30 genotypes of (false flax) was determined against both pathogens. genotypes were inoculated at seedling and adult stages with two pathotypes of , highly virulent MBRS-1 and less virulent WW-1.

Camalexin Production in Camelina sativa is Independent of Cotyledon Resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.

Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz. has been proposed as a novel source of oilseed resistance to Sclerotinia rot (SR; causal agent Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.

A consensus linkage map of oil palm and a major QTL for stem height.

Oil palm (Elaeis guinensis Jacquin) is the most important source of vegetable oil and fat. Several linkage maps had been constructed using dominant and co-dominant markers to facilitate mapping of QTL. However, dominant markers are not easily transferable among different laboratories.
